EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Introduction
This report presents the Waste Management Plan (WMP) undertaken as part of the Environmental and Social
Impact Assessment (ESIA) process required for a proposed gas to power facility known as the Central Térmica
de Temane (CTT) Project. The Proponent for this application is Moz Power Invest, S.A. (MPI), a company to be
incorporated under the laws of Mozambique under a joint development agreement with Sasol New Energy
Holdings (Pty) Ltd (SNE). Shareholding for MPI is comprised of Electricidade de Mozambique E.P. (EDM) and
Temane Energy Consortium (Pty) Ltd (TEC).
The scope of work for this specialist study reporting to the ESIA contains a project overview; legal framework;
baseline waste environment; waste and wastewater management plans; mitigation and monitoring actions.
The overall objective of the study is to identify all waste streams associated with the project, record their inherent
hazardousness, to identify the potential impacts of these waste streams and to develop measures to mitigate
those impacts that cannot be eliminated or minimized to an acceptable level.
The WMP has been conducted in accordance with the following:
Mozambique legislation;
International conventions, World Bank performance standards and EHS guidelines; and
Sasol’s Environmental Management Plans with respect to waste and wastewater.
Baseline Waste Environment
The waste streams (solid and effluents) generated by the CTT project are expected to be mostly from equipment
and vehicle maintenance at the Logistics and Worker’s Camps. The production of waste and wastewater shall
be dealt with in the following manner:
Wastes destined for reuse and recycling ((as far as is practical) include:
▪ General wastes: paper, wood, textiles, metal and plastic containers, tyres and domestic waste (food waste recommended to be composted); and
▪ Hazardous wastes: printer cartridges (return to supplier for re-inking), waste oils (by gravity separation) and lead acid batteries
Wastes disposed on site include:
▪ Construction and demolition waste (or reuse for construction foundation); and
▪ Garden waste.
Wastes removed by a subcontractor and disposed at an appropriately licensed waste facility include:
▪ General Waste: food waste, contaminated packaging waste, kitchen oil and by-products from emissions controls
▪ Hazardous wastes: medical and laboratory glassware, fluorescent tubes, empty drums, used oil filters, sludge, aerosol cans, single use Personal Protective Equipment and batteries.
Wastewater
With respect to wastewater management the following elements are relevant:
April 2019 18103533-320978-12
iv
▪ Domestic wastewater, potentially oil contaminated (POC) water or sewage shall be transferred to Waste Water Treatment Plan (WWTP) for treatment before release to the environment. The effluent will be disposed in line with the Mozambican regulations on effluent water disposal requirements Decree 18/2004 of 2 June (amended by Decree 67/2010 of 31 December) and the World Bank EHS guidelines.
Waste Management Accountabilities
The WMP establishes accountability (producer responsibility) within specified timeframes through various waste minimization, re-use, recycling, recovery and safe treatment and disposal initiatives.
Conclusion and Recommendations
This document presents the Waste Management Plan for the CTT project. It provides a waste management
baseline and details the goals, objectives and targets timeframes for implementation and roles and
responsibilities to achieve a compliant standard of waste management for the CTT project.
Recommendations have been included for measures to reduce risks of performance irregularity imposed by
effluent and waste demands primarily in the logistics and worker’s camps where such risks could result in non-
compliance events. Further recommendations have been made to ensure that the Environmental Management
Plan is updated to improve alignment with the project. Ideally this plan should be reviewed every 5 years in
order to keep up with advances in the waste management industry and to ensure its continued suitability,
adequacy and effectiveness.

1.0 PROJECT OVERVIEW
1.1 Introduction
The Mozambican economy is one of the fastest growing economies on the African continent with electricity
demand increasing by approximately 6-8% annually. In order to address the growing electricity demand faced
by Mozambique and to improve power quality, grid stability and flexibility in the system, Moz Power Invest, S.A.
(MPI), a company to be incorporated under the laws of Mozambique and Sasol New Energy Holdings (Pty) Ltd
(SNE) in a joint development agreement is proposing the construction and operation of a gas to power facility,
known as the Central Térmica de Temane (CTT) project. MPI’s shareholding will be comprised of EDM and
Temane Energy Consortium (Pty) Ltd (TEC). The joint development partners of MPI and SNE will hereafter be
referred to as the Proponent. The Proponent propose to develop the CTT, a 450MW natural gas fired power
plant.
The proposed CTT project will draw gas from the Sasol Exploration and Production International (SEPI) gas
well field via the phase 1 development of the PSA License area, covering gas deposits in the Temane and
Pande well fields in the Inhassoro District and the existing Central Processing Facility (CPF). Consequently, the
CTT site is in close proximity to the CPF. The preferred location for the CTT is approximately 500 m south of
the CPF. The CPF, and the proposed site of the CTT project, is located in the Temane/Mangugumete area,
Inhassoro District, Inhambane Province, Mozambique; and approximately 40 km northwest of the town of
Vilanculos. The Govuro River lies 8 km east of the proposed CTT site. The estimated footprint of the CTT power
plant is approximately 20 ha (see Figure 1).
The proposed project will draw gas from either the Sasol Exploration Production International (SEPI) gas well
field via the existing Central Processing Facility (CPF) or from an alternative gas source. Consequently, the CTT
site is in close proximity to the CPF. The preferred location for the CTT is approximately 500 m south of the
CPF. The CPF, and the proposed site of the CTT project, is located in the Temane/Mangugumete area,
Inhassoro District, Inhambane Province, Mozambique; and approximately 40 km northwest of the town of
Vilanculos. The Govuro River lies 8 km east of the proposed CTT site. The estimated footprint of the CTT power
plant is approximately 20 ha.
Associated infrastructure and facilities for the CTT project will include:
1) Electricity transmission line (400 kV) and servitude; from the proposed power plant to the proposed
Vilanculos substation over a total length of 25 km running generally south to a future Vilanculos substation.
[Note: the development of the substation falls outside the battery limits of the project scope as it is part of
independent infrastructure authorised separately (although separately authorised, the transmission line will
be covered by the Project ESMP, and the Vilanculos substation is covered under the Temane Transmission
Project (TTP) Environmental and Social Management Plans). Environmental authorisation for this
substation was obtained under the STE/CESUL project. (MICOA Ref: 75/MICOA/12 of 22nd May 2012)];
2) Piped water from one or more borehole(s) located either on site at the power plant or from a borehole
located on the eastern bank of the Govuro River (this option will require a water pipeline approximately
11km in length);
3) Access road; over a total length of 3 km, which will follow the proposed water pipeline to the northeast of
the CTT to connect to the existing Temane CPF access road;
4) Gas pipeline and servitude; over a total length of 2 km, which will start from the CPF high pressure
compressor and run south on the western side of the CPF;
5) Additional nominal widening of the servitude for vehicle turning points at points to be identified along these
linear servitudes;
April 2019 18103533-320978-12

6) A construction camp and contractor laydown areas will be established adjacent to the CTT power plant
footprint; and
7) Transhipment and barging of equipment to a temporary beach landing site and associated logistics camp
and laydown area for the purposes of safe handling and delivery of large oversized and heavy equipment
and infrastructure to build the CTT. The transhipment consists of a vessel anchoring for only approximately
1-2 days with periods of up to 3-4 months between shipments over a maximum 15 month period early in
the construction phase, in order to offload heavy materials to a barge for beach landing. There are 3 beach
landing site options, namely SETA, Maritima and Briza Mar (Figure 7). The SETA site is considered to be
the preferred beach landing site for environmental and other reasons; it therefore shall be selected unless
it is found to be not feasible for any reason; and
8) Temporary bridges and access roads or upgrading and reinforcement of existing bridges and roads across
sections of the Govuro River where existing bridges are not able to bear the weight of the equipment loads
that need to be transported from the beach landing site to the CTT site. Some new sections of road may
need to be developed where existing roads are inaccessible or inadequate to allow for the safe transport
of equipment to the CTT site. The northern transport route via R241 and EN1 is considered as the preferred
transport route (Figure 8) on terrestrial impacts; however, until the final anchor point is selected, and the
barge route confirmed, the marine factors may still have an impact on which is deemed the overall
preferable route.

1.2 Purpose and Objectives of this Document
The objective of the Waste Management Plan (WMP) is to provide a system for the identification, classification,
minimization, handling, storage and treatment/disposal of all wastes generated as a result of the CTT project
activities and associated infrastructures, on the surrounding environment during the project lifecycle, to ensure:
Compliance with Mozambique waste management legislation;
Conformation with oil and gas World Bank performance standards and World Bank EHS guidelines; and
Implementation of industry best practice waste management procedures, in order to eliminate or mitigate potential impacts on the environment and human health.
In the long term, this will reduce waste management costs, environmental liabilities, and risks.
The WMP elaborates the requirements with respect to the definition and assessment of the potential impacts of
all types of wastes expected to be produced from the project activities. The types of waste and wastewater
generated during the CTT project lifecycle are described.

2.2 International Guidelines and Conventions
The following are international conventions and guidance related to waste management as is applicable to the
CTT project:
World Bank Group (OP4.03) Performance Standards and World Bank Environmental, Health and
Safety (EHS) Guidelines
April 2019 18103533-320978-12
7
The WB EHS guidelines provide guidance for the following:
▪ Information in support of actions for avoiding, minimizing, and controlling EHS impacts during the
construction, operation, and decommissioning phases of a project or development of a facility;
▪ The implementation of the IFC Performance Standards, particularly on those aspects related to
Performance Standard 3: Pollution Prevention & Abatement and aspects of occupational and
community health and safety;
▪ Assisting decision makers with relevant industry background and technical information;
▪ Management of produced water/wastewater – guidelines for reduction, reuse and disposal; and
▪ Treatment and disposal of general waste waters (sewage, drainage and storm water).
In the event of a host country’s regulations differing from the levels and measures presented in the WB EHS
Guidelines, projects will be expected to comply with whichever is more stringent. If less stringent levels or
measures are appropriate in view of specific project circumstances, a full and detailed justification for any
proposed deviation/alternatives should be provided.
▪ Performance Standard (PS) PS3: Resource Efficiency and Pollution Prevention. This PS requires the
investor to avoid or minimise adverse human impacts on human health and the environment by
avoiding or minimising pollution from project activities.
▪ Air Quality - Air emissions guidelines are outlined in the World Health Organisation (WHO) Air Quality
Guidelines Global Update. EHS guidelines for air quality management include the identification of
possible risks and hazards associated with the project as early on as possible and understand the
magnitude of the risks; the potential consequences to workers, communities, or the environment if
these hazards are not adequately managed or controlled. Impacts to air quality should be prevented
or minimised by ensuring that emissions to air do not result in pollutant concentrations exceeding the
relevant ambient air quality guidelines or standards.
General WB EHS Guidelines: Environmental Waste Management
These guidelines apply to projects that generate, store, or handle any quantity of waste across a range of
industry sectors. It provides guidance in terms of general non-hazardous waste, hazardous waste and waste
monitoring options. The Proponents’ commitment to waste minimisation, reuse and recycle is audited against
the intent of these general EHS guidelines.
Sludge and other discarded material, including solid, liquid, semi-solid, or gaseous material resulting from
industrial operations needs to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to establish whether it constitutes a
hazardous or a non-hazardous waste. Facilities that generate and store wastes should practice the following:
▪ Establishing waste management priorities at the outset of activities;
▪ Establishing a waste management hierarchy that considers first prevention then reduction, reuse,
recovery, recycling, removal and finally disposal of wastes;
▪ Avoiding or minimizing the generation of waste materials, as far as practicable; and
▪ Where waste generation cannot be avoided, minimize, recover and reuse waste
General WB EHS Guidelines: Power Plants
The EHS Guidelines for Thermal Power Plants includes information relevant to the waste streams and
management of waste.

Recommended measures to prevent, minimize, and control the volume of solid wastes from thermal power
plants include recycling of solid wastes in uses such as cement and other concrete products, construction
(roads), disposal of solid wastes in permitted landfills and dry handling of solid wastes, in particular fly ash.
South African National Standard (SANS) 101031 - Mozambique has not promulgated its own noise
regulations and reference is usually made to other standards and guidelines in cases where noise impacts
need to be assessed. SANS 101031 is aligned with World Health Organisation (WHO) 2 guidelines.
Conventions
▪ The Basel Convention (1992) (on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and
Their Disposal) to which Mozambique has acceded (1997), controls the movement, storage, transport,
treatment, reuse, recycling, recovery and final disposal of hazardous waste as well as requiring
producers of hazardous waste to dispose of their waste in an environmentally responsible manner
close to where it is generated.
▪ The Bamako Convention (1991) is supplementary to the Basel Convention and specifically covers the
movement of hazardous waste into or between signatory African countries. Mozambique acceded this
convention in 1999.
▪ The Stockholm Convention (2004) on Persistent Organic Pollutants is a global treaty to protect human
health and the environment from chemicals that remain intact in the environment for long periods,
become widely distributed geographically, accumulate in the fatty tissue of humans and wildlife, and
have harmful impacts on human health or on the environment. Mozambique acceded this convention
in 2006.
▪ Rotterdam Convention on the Prior Informed Consent Procedure for Certain Hazardous Chemicals
and Pesticides in International Trade (1998).
▪ The European Waste Incineration Directive, Directive 2000/76/EC on the Incineration of Waste. This
directive provides regulations for the incineration of household and hazardous waste in Europe. The
aim of the Waste Incineration Directive is to prevent or to reduce, as far as possible, negative effects
on the environment caused by the incineration and co-incineration of waste.
▪ Basel Convention Technical Guidelines on Incineration on Land, 2002. These guidelines focus on the
disposal of hazardous waste by thermal processes.

3.0 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The CTT project will produce electricity from natural gas in a power plant located 500m south of the CPF. The
project will consist of the construction and operation of the following main components:
Gas to Power Plant with generation capacity of 450MW;
Gas pipeline (±2 km) that will feed the Power Plant with natural gas from the CPF;
400kV Electrical transmission line (± 25 km) with a servitude that will include a fire break (vegetation
control) and a maintenance road to the Vilanculos substation. The transmission line will have a partial
protection zone (PPZ) of 100m width. The transmission line servitude will fall inside the PPZ;
Water supply pipeline from one or more borehole(s) located either on site or at borehole(s) located east of
the Govuro River;
Surfaced access road to the CTT site and gravel maintenance roads within the transmission line and
pipeline servitudes;
Temporary beach landing structures at Inhassoro for the purposes of delivery of equipment and
infrastructure to build the power plant. This will include transhipment and barging activities to bring
equipment to the beach landing site for approximately 1-2 days with up to 3-4 months between shipments
over a period of approximately 8-15 months;
Construction camp and contractor laydown areas adjacent to the CTT power plant site; and
April 2019 18103533-320978-12
10
Temporary bridge structures across Govuro River and tributaries, as well possible new roads and/or road
upgrades to allow equipment to be safely transported to site during construction.
Figure 2: Examples of gas to power plant sites (source: www.industcards.com and www.wartsila.com)
The final selection of technology that will form part of the power generation component of the CTT project has
not been determined at this stage. The two power generation technology options that are currently being
evaluated are:
Combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT); and
Open Cycle Gas Engines (OCGE).
Please refer to Chapter 4 of the main ESIA document for further details on the technology option.
At this early stage in the project a provisional layout of infrastructure footprints, including the proposed linear
alignments is indicated in Figure 1. A conceptual layout of the CTT plant site is shown below in Figure 3.
April 2019 18103533-320978-12

Figure 3: Conceptual layout of CTT plant site
3.1 Ancillary Infrastructure
The CTT project will also include the following infrastructure:
Maintenance facilities, admin building and other buildings;
Telecommunications and security;
Waste (solid and effluent) treatment and/or handling and disposal by third party;
Site preparation, civil works and infrastructure development for the complete plant;
Construction camp (including housing/accommodation for construction workers); and
Beach landing laydown area and logistics camp.
The heavy equipment and pre-fabricated components of the power plant will be brought in by ship and
transferred by barge and landed on the beach near Inhassoro. The equipment and components will be brought
to site by special heavy vehicles capable of handling abnormally heavy and large dimension loads. Figure 4,
Figure 5 and Figure 6 show examples of the activities involved with a temporary beach landing site, offloading
and transporting of large heavy equipment by road to site.

3.2 Water and electricity consumption
The type, origin and quantity of water and energy consumption are still to be determined based on the selected
technology to construct and operate the CTT plant. At this stage it is known that water will be sourced from
existing boreholes located on site or east of the Govuro River for either of the technology options below:
Gas Engine: ± 12 m3/day; or
Gas Turbine (Dry-Cooling): ± 120 – 240 m3/day.
3.3 Temporary Beach Landing Site and Transportation Route Alternative
As part of the CTT construction phase it was considered that large heavy equipment and materials would need
to be brought in by a ship which would remain anchored at sea off the coast of Inhassoro. Equipment and
materials would be transferred to a barge capable of moving on the high tide into very shallow water adjacent
to the beach to discharge its cargo onto a temporary off-loading jetty (typically containers filled with sand) near
the town of Inhassoro. As the tide changes, the barge rests on the beach and off-loading of the equipment
commences.
Currently, the SETA beach landing site is the preferred beach landing site together with the road route option
to be used in transporting equipment and materials along the R241 then the EN1 then via the existing CPF
access road to the CTT site near the CPF. Figure 7 and Figure 8 indicate the beach landing site and route
transportation option. The alternative beach landing sites of Maritima and Briza Mar are still being evaluated
as potential options, as well as the southern transport route, which would also require road upgrades and a
temporary bridge construction across the Govuro at the position of the existing pipe bridge. As part of the
transportation route, the Grovuro River bridge may need to be upgraded / strengthened to accommodate the
abnormal vehicle loads. Alternatively, a temporary bypass bridge will be constructed adjacent to the existing
bridge.

4.0 WASTE BASELINE ENVIRONMENT
4.1 Waste Identification and Classification
All waste generated by the Proponent on the CTT project will be classified in accordance with the Mozambican
applicable legislation, namely the Regulations on Urban Solid Waste Management Regulations (Decree
94/2014 of 31 December) and the Regulations on Hazardous Waste Management (Decree 83/2014 of 31
December), which classifies hazardous waste based on specific characteristics.
4.2 Non-Hazardous Waste
Non-hazardous waste includes a wide range of materials that can be recycled (depending on if they have been
source segregated) and does not exhibit any hazardous properties. Examples include domestic waste such as
food, packaging materials, scrap metals, various metals and wood.
Article 14 of the regulations on Urban Solid Waste Management classifies non-hazardous waste according to
the following categories:
a) Organic materials;
b) Paper or cardboard;
c) Rubble;
d) Plastic;
e) Glass;
f) Metal;
g) Textiles;
h) Rubber;
i) Bulky household waste;
j) Special waste.
With the exception of special wastes, which is not explicitly defined in the regulation, it is expected that all the
above waste types will be generated by the CTT project to some extent, with the quantities of these wastes
varying depending on the activity.
It should be noted that some products are considered non‐hazardous prior to their intended use yet may become
hazardous once used and may contain a range of hazardous chemicals or contaminants (e.g. oil contaminated
rages and wipes).
4.3 Hazardous Waste
Hazardous waste as defined by the Mozambican law, are those listed in Annex IX of the hazardous waste
regulation, which can be potentially harmful to human health or has the potential to damage the environment
and demonstrates one or more of the hazard characteristics listed in Annex III of the regulation. They include
wastes which have any of the following characteristics:
Explosive;
Flammable;
Toxic;
Infectious;
April 2019 18103533-320978-12
17
Radioactive; and
Other characteristics that constitute a danger to the life or health of humans and other living beings and
to the quality of the environment.
The characteristics of hazardous wastes are further described in Annex III of the same decree (Appendix B).
Despite being hazardous, several types of hazardous wastes can and should be recycled, to the extent where
technically feasible or possible (e.g. waste oils and solvents).
4.4 Biomedical Waste
Bio-medical waste is regulated by Decree 8/2003, Bio-medical Waste Management Regulations and it refers to
waste resulting from diagnosing, treatment (the waste that would originate from the project clinic) as well as
human and veterinary science survey. The Decree indicates how bio‐medical waste should be separated,
identified, stored, removed, transported and disposed. Bio‐medical waste will be separated into the following
types:
Infectious waste;
“Sharps” (needles, knives etc.);
Anatomical waste;
Ordinary waste; and
Pharmaceutical waste.
Only a limited amount of anatomical waste is expected to be generated from the CTT project. No surgical
procedures will be done on site. For certain minor cases, minor surgical procedures may be performed in the
Camp’s Clinic in an emergency. In such an event, the appropriate procedure for the storage and disposal of
medical waste shall be adhered to.
4.5 Unidentified Waste
Where materials of unknown type or composition are identified, they will be treated as hazardous (precautionary
approach). Raw material MSDS sheets, process knowledge, sampling and analyses, as required, will be used
to classify unknown wastes for the purposes of storage, transportation, recycling/reuse, and disposal.
If the material is determined to be waste and the risks have been assessed, the integrity of the storage container,
if any, will be evaluated and the waste will be transferred to an appropriate management area within the
Proponent Camp’s waste storage area where it can be properly managed and / or disposed.
All unknown waste shall be managed and disposed in discussion with the Environmental Coordinator.
A list of wastes anticipated to be generated during the CTT project activities is presented in Table 2 together
with the provisional classification for each waste and preferred treatment/disposal route.

6.0 WASTE MANAGEMENT
6.1 Waste Management Hierarchy
An integrated waste management plan has been prepared in this section of the report to take into account the
internationally accepted waste hierarchy. The elements of the hierarchy are shown in Figure 9 below.
Figure 9: The waste management hierarchy
The philosophy of the waste hierarchy is that if less waste is disposed then it is less likely that there will be a
potential impact on the environment. The waste hierarchy encourages measures to be put in place to reduce
waste generated though more efficient processes and technologies, or at least to encourage the potential for
waste that is generated to be reused or recycled. Failing this, the hierarchy requires that waste be treated where
possible to reduce its volume or hazardous properties, or finally be disposed or incinerated.
Responsible waste management can be accomplished through the hierarchical application of the practices of
source reduction, re-use, recycling/recovery, treatment, and responsible disposal. This is provided for in article
4 of Hazardous Waste Management Regulation, Decree 83/2014 of 31 December and Regulations on Urban
Solid Waste Management, Decree 94/2014 of 31 December.
At all stages of the camp construction and operation, the first priority in terms of waste management will be to
minimise the amount and toxicity of all waste streams generated. Reducing the volume and toxicity of waste
generated will reduce the risks associated with the handling, storage, transport, treatment and disposal of the
waste. Waste minimisation can be accomplished applying the principles below:
1) Reduce - source reduction or ‘waste avoidance’ requires that waste managers examine ways of eliminating
or reducing waste at source. This is the first step in responsible waste management. In the event of
choices, this is the preferred alternative.
2) Reuse - where waste can be reused this is a preferred option. Reuse is different from recycling insofar as
it involves the reuse of a resource without changing its original form. The reuse of water would be an
example of this. Wherever possible, unused or partially used materials which are surplus should be
returned to the original suppliers.
April 2019 18103533-320978-12
32
3) Recycling - involves the collection of materials that can be re-processed for further use, such as aluminium
cans and metal scrap. The separated material can be used as a product or raw material. There are local
markets for some recyclable materials such as plastic, metals and tyres. Market for the recycling of paper
and cardboard will be used to recycle waste paper and cardboard no longer utilised by project activities.
4) Resource recovery - involves the capture of energy or some other valuable benefit from the waste.
5) Incineration - involves the destruction of wastes, leaving a small quantity of ash to be disposed, and it is
found at the most advanced level of waste disposal/treatment.
6) Landfill - this is the final (least desirable) alternative which should only be used when all other reasonable
alternatives have been considered.
The above principles are applicable to both hazardous and non-hazardous waste.
The Environment Site Officer (ESO) shall identify and implement waste minimisation opportunities for waste
generated on site as part of the environmental audits and inspection process. Similarly, good housekeeping can
minimise the amount of waste generated by ensuring that, where possible, materials are used more than once,
and the use of general supplies is maximised before they are discarded, e.g. not discarding half full refuse bags.
To manage the project’s camps waste streams, it will be necessary to identify disposal routes in accordance
with the waste category assigned to the specific waste stream. Some waste may need to be stored temporarily
while the most appropriate treatment or disposal facility is identified, and arrangements made for transfer (e.g.
lead acid and dry cell batteries light bulbs and solvents).
7.0 WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN
The guiding principle for a WMP is to adopt the waste hierarchy approach. The success of the implementation
of the WMP should be monitored against the various objectives and targets that have been set in this plan.
In line with the Principle of Extended Producer Responsibility, as described in Decree 83/2014, the responsibility
for implementing the waste management measures remains with the Proponent; however, where contractors
are appointed to perform certain activities, the contractor shall be responsible to ensure that these measures
are adhered to.
Table 4, Table 5, Table 6 and Table 7 present the procedural steps to be adopted when collection, segregating, storing, transporting and disposing of wastes as generated by CTT project activities. Responsibilities are also denoted accordingly.

7.5 Other Wastes Those wastes which cannot be avoided, reused or recycled will be treated and/or disposed of in the most environmentally sound manner to minimize any potential human health and environmental impacts. Waste that cannot be avoided, reused or recycled and which are not suitable for incineration or disposal at a third-party landfill site will be temporarily and properly stored while an appropriate management route is identified.
7.6 Vehicles and Waste Contractors
Only waste contractors that can demonstrate they have the necessary authorisation from MITADER for
transporting the particular types of waste will be considered for the Camp’s waste management facility. The
following requirements shall therefore apply:
▪ The collection vehicle will be checked to ensure that it is designed for the type of waste and containers to be transported and that it is roadworthy.
▪ The contractor must be familiar with the requirements for the transportation of the type of waste (including hazardous);
▪ The frequency of waste collection and the interim measures for the storage of waste on site shall have to be appropriate to one another and would have to be such that the system as a whole does not pose an unacceptable risk to either the environment or human health and safety;
▪ The transportation contractor shall have in place the means to respond appropriately to spillages of waste anywhere along the route within a time limit acceptable to the CTT project (spill containment kits);
▪ Certificates of safe disposal shall have to be provided to CTT project for all wastes removed from site. Such certificates shall be issued by a recognized waste disposal operation; and
▪ The site at which such waste is disposed of shall have to comply with the corporate requirements of the CTT project and its shareholders. As such it shall have to be audited at intervals appropriate to the risk associated with the disposal operation.
7.6.1 Contractor Inspection
The ESO will inspect the Contractor periodically to ensure compliance with waste management requirements in
relation with project activities.
7.7 Waste Records
A Waste Register and copies of WTN will be maintained by Environmental Coordinator, as required by the
Mozambican waste management decree. The waste register shall contain data on the quantities of the different
types of waste that are generated by the project activities and the treatment/disposal option that is used.
All waste leaving the project sites will be accompanied with a WTN containing the following information:
Producer of the waste.
Site name & location.
Date.
Description of the waste (i.e. contents and volume).
Signature of the waste carrier.

Characteristics of Waste and
Hazardous Substances
April 2019 18103533-320978-12
Characteristics of Waste and Hazardous Substances
Class Code Characteristics
1 H1 Explosive
Substance or explosive residue; substance or solid waste, liquid (or mixture of
substances and or waste) that has the potential for chemical reaction producing gas
at a temperature, pressure and velocity such that it can cause damage to surrounding
areas.
2 H2 Substances consisting of compressed liquefied gases under pressure
Gases that are dangerous by virtue of being compressed, liquefied, dissolved under
pressure or cooled. These gases may pose additional danger and may be
asphyxiating, e.g. nitrogen; flammable e.g. butane; or toxic, e.g. chlorides.
3 H3 Flammable
Flammable liquids are liquids, liquid mixtures or liquids containing solids in solution or
suspension (for example paints, varnishes, lacquers, etc., not including substances or
waste classified differently due to their dangerous characteristics) that release
flammable vapours at temperatures not exceeding 60.5°C in the case of testing in an
open vessel, or not greater than 65.6°C in closed vessel tests. Since the results of
tests in open and closed vessels are not strictly comparable, and bearing in mind that
the results obtained by the same method often vary from each other, regulations
which deviate from the above values,in order to take into account these differences,
are considered compatible with the spirit of this definition.
4.1. H4.1 Flammable solids
Materials or solid waste other than those classified as explosives which during
transportation conditions are readily combustible and may through friction cause or
contribute to fire.
4.2 H4.2 Spontaneously flammable substances or waste
Substances or waste which are capable of spontaneous heating under normal
conditions of transport, or heating in contact with air and may therefore ignite.
4.3 H4.3 Substances which, on contact with water, give off flammable gases
Substances or waste which react with water and are likely to become spontaneously
flammable or emit flammable gases in dangerous quantities.
5.1 H5.1 Oxidisers or Oxidising Substances
Substances or waste, while not independently, may generally by yielding oxygen
cause or contribute to the combustion of other materials.
5.2 H5.2 Organic peroxides
April 2019 18103533-320978-12
Class Code Characteristics
Substances or organic wastes containing the bivalent structure 0-0 that are thermally
unstable and may undergo sub-accelerated exothermic composition.
6.1 H6.1 (Acute) toxic substances
Substances or waste which, by ingestion or inhalation or skin contact, may harm
human health, cause serious injury or even death.
6.2 H6.2 Infectious substances
Substances or waste containing living micro-organisms or their toxins which are
known to or there is good reason to believe may cause disease in humans or
animals.
8 H.8 Corrosives
Substances or waste which, by chemical action, cause serious damage when in
contact with living tissue or, in the case of discharge, may seriously damage or
destroy others or the means of transport, and may also cause other hazards.
9 H.10 Substances which release toxic gases when in contact with air or water
Substances or wastes which on reaction with water or air are likely to emit toxic gases
in dangerous quantities.
9 H.11 Toxic substances (with delayed effects)
Substances or waste which, by inhalation, ingestion or skin contact may cause
delayed or chronic effects, including cancer.
H.12 Ecotoxic substances
Substances or wastes which do or may present immediate or delayed risks for the
environment, by bioaccumulation and or toxic effects on biotic systems.
9 H.13 Substances that, after disposal, may in some way give rise to other substances, such
as a product of leaching, having any of the characteristics mentioned above.
